Itinerary
- 1Samogitia National Park or Žemaitija National Park is a national park in Lithuania. It is situated on the Samogitian Highlands, 45 km from the Baltic Sea. Lakes cover more than 7% of its territory. Lake Plateliai (12.05 km², 47 m depth) is the largest lake. The town of Plateliai, situated on the shore of the lake, is the seat of the park's administration and a popular tourist destination.
About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- alohahonu910 contributionsBeautiful and unique way to see Klaipeda. Highly recommended!My (adult) daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the night canoe tour. As we didn't have our own vehicle, or know the town at all, we appreciated that Janis picked us up at our hotel. It's important to dress for the weather for this outing. We were fortunate that the warm fall evening provided ideal weather and conditions. The peacefulness of paddling through the calm waters while taking in the stunning city lights reflecting off the surface was incredible. It offered a completely different perspective of Klaipeda. Janis was not only knowledgeable about the area, and great at explaining the basics of canoeing, but also made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the tour. There were only two groups/canoes on this tour, so the introduction and practice paddling went quickly. We were on the water for a little over an hour, which felt like just the right amount of time. It's not a strenuous activity, so it would be suitable for almost anyone. We had plenty of time to take photos and Janis took photos of each group along the way. The canoes and paddles are beautifully hand-crafted by Janis. My daughter said it was the most comfortable canoe she's ever been in. This tour is a must-do for anyone looking to explore the city in a unique and peaceful way. Highly recommended!Written September 28, 2024
- Edvard M0 contributionsA wonderful tourOur second experience with Wet Weim and it was just as great as our first. The views were breathtaking. We have visited the Curonian Spit many times, but seeing the Dunes from the side of the Curonian Lagoon was something unique. Janis is an excellent and caring guide, I recommend him 100%Written August 4, 2024
- Yi L0 contributionsThe calm brightly-lit night tour was fascinating! Jani makes his own canoes that demonstrate stunning craftsmanshipThe calm brightly-lit night tour was fascinating! Jani makes his own canoes that demonstrate stunning craftsmanshipWritten August 24, 2023
- RichardM5790 contributionsA magical eveningUnique view of the Old Town from the water. We met the group around sunset, which in July was around 10PM; Janis provided beautiful cedar strip canoes, good equipment and paddling instruction. With a lighted torch standing in the bow of the canoe, we paddled off to explore the waterway. Make sure you let Janis know if you already know how to paddle a canoe, this can save you some aggravation before launch and get you on the water sooner. The paddle is not really a "guided" tour, you have a route to follow and Janis is never far away, but you can explore independently.Written August 22, 2023
- Monika K0 contributionsOur second experience - surely not the last!This was our second experience with Wet Weim and it was as brilliant as the first one. Janis - the guide and the person behind Wet Weim - is as always kind, genuinely interested and passionate, and caring. The views were breathtaking. Being a Lithuanian I have visited Kuršių Nerija many times before, but I saw the Dunes very differently and it was truly a unique sight. Canoeing itself was very pleasant. Janis ensured we travelled when the wind and waves were mild so that we could all comfortably paddle aroud.Written July 30, 2023
- Kittyathome0 contributionsFantastic! Whole-heartedly recommendWe went on the Mighty Sands tour, and what a fantastic day we had. Neither of us had had any recent experience in canoeing, but all our concerns dissipated thanks to our fabulous guide Janis – as smart and patient and informed about this beautiful part of the world as anyone you could wish. Highlights included canoeing past a lighthouse, stopping at the foot of a dramatic wall of sand set against the blue sky, and paddling past beds of reeds where innumerable hidden birds called out to each other. Even more memorable was our delicious picnic… complete with fresh coffee and chocolates. Whole-heartedly recommended!Written June 27, 2023
- 87sara0 contributionsAmazing experience!I absolutely loved this experience as from the booking till the moment of the drop off at the hotel the communication with Wet Weim went perfectly! The beauty of the Curonian Spit is something that one needs to experience and doing it through the water os an unique and special way of doing so, that i would really recommend to everyone. Although i never canoed in my life, with the guidance of our guide, i enjoyed every second of our tour. Be sure to also book the picknick so hou can enjoy s bit of luxury after your hard work!Written June 7, 2023

- andygQ956OO0 contributionsa great experience, recommend to everyoneThis experience is really beautiful and unique. highly recommended, also great for children. We were lucky enough to be able to enjoy an exclusive single ride. Thank you very much for this nice event.Written October 19, 2022
- Giovanna M0 contributionsHighly recommended tour!We had an amazing time with Janis, he came to pick us up at the hotel and took good care of us, on the land and in the sea. He explained thoroughly how to ride a canoe from the front and in the back, explained how much time it took him to build it and so on. We had a nice break for a pic nic in a very nice spot and then rode back. I highly recommend this tour with Janis!Written August 20, 2022
- jokalt770 contributionsAmazing day in beautiful canoesWe took a daytrip to Zemaitija region. Janis is an excellent guide and canoe instructor and took good care of us and our 2 children. The wooden canoes were expertly made. We enjoyed the calm lake and unspoiled nature of the national park.Written August 18, 2022
- mirenatumaite0 contributionsRelaxing and valuable experienceGreat experience, route, timing and overall idea. Canoes are just amazing! As well as it was great to see how much love Janis puts into it. It made the experience even more valuable. Very relaxing and pleasant. Tahnk you!Written August 15, 2022

- Q1698KBmattb0 contributionsAn exceptional experience and unique perspective of KlaipedaWe booked this the day before we arrived in Klaipeda as part of a cruise. Janis was very clear and communicative over email which was very reassuring in the build up. He picked a group of us up from our ship and drove us to a remote and tranquil area to canoe (in phenomenal boats he had made himself) along the Curonian spit. Janis taught us how to paddle in a canoe compared to a kayak and got us out on the water. The surroundings were beautiful and we got to see lots of wildlife. Janis took great photos of all the boats and also used his drone to create some really impressive birds eye view photos. On the way back we stopped on the beach for a picnic he had prepared. It's a fair few hours on the water so be prepared for a bit of a workout. Janis drove us back to the cruise ship after. This is a brilliant opportunity to make your holiday or cruise stop extra special. Janis is a fantastic guide, incredibly helpful and well prepared. Would definitely recommend.Written July 14, 2022
- erikalau550 contributionsStunning view and amazing experienceThe experience was exactly what we expected if not better. For the price I definitely recommend. The view was absolutely stunning and it was a nice change in the type of activities offered in Klaipeda. You are given time to practise canoeing before setting off on the tour so it all goes smoothly. The guide was very friendly and was able to communicate perfectly with my boyfriend who only speaks English. Very fun experience and will do it again when I come back to lithuania with my parentsWritten June 8, 2022

This is an amazing experience, guided by a real professional. Not to mention the beauty of Plateliai lake and spiritually and physically refreshing activity, Janis is one of the most dedicated person we ever met. He is a creator of hadcrafted Canoe's and a really great guide, that is really nice and intelligent persont to talk and to know better the history of Lithuania.
All the activities are so greatly planned: the picnick, the photoshoot from the sky and so much more.
Absolutely recomending! it was a great day

Already 5 Minutes after booking and the official booking confirmation I received another email from Janis (the tour guide) directly WOW, that's quite a service!! Asking me, where it should be best to meet, or to pick me wherever I am.
As we are in the first days of June, the high season hasn't started yet. So I was lucky to be the only guest, having just a completely private tour.
Janis picked me up exactly on time in the morning. We have been out on the lake until afternoon. It was sich a great day, that I can hardly put it into word. Janis and I shared one canoe. A beautiful one, which he builds himself during winter times. In summer he offers tours with it.
We had a lot of chatting during the paddling. Janis speaks absolute fluently English. But we also shared quiet moments, simply enjoying the beautiful nature around us. After a great picknick for lunch on one of the small islands in the lake we kept on paddling. Janis then let a drone fly above us and taking great pictures fromabove.
It was really a perfect day, with Janis being a perfect and sympathetic guide. If you want a once in a lifetime experience then book this canoe tour with him. You can find a detailed report of this tour in German language and with a lot of photos on my travel blog: alla-on-tour.de.
Ačiū, Janis, for a great tour and lovely day!
